Li Sanzhong was shocked. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

It seemed as if a demon was standing behind him, holding a cold iron hammer that had been stabbed viciously into his spine from the back of his neck, forcing him to straighten his back, as if the slightest bend would break open his heart.

In a moment of hesitation, the archsteward's gaze met the eyes of the young head of the family.

He had never looked closely at these eyes before, and he had never noticed what kind of scenery or storm lurked in these eyes.

When Li Qi was still alive, as the chief steward of the Li Mansion, Li Sanzhong and the two young masters kept a delicate distance, but in fact, they still had to get closer to Li Yongbo. He is a righteous grandson, a serious heir, Li Sanzhong originally thought so, Li Qi will be the master after a hundred years, who else is besides him? Who knows that Li Yongbo is becoming more and more unsuccessful day by day, if Li Qi hands over the family business to Boguan'er, Li Sanzhong will have to watch Li Yongbo defeat the Li family.

Fortunately, Li Qi returned to the light and cleared up before his death, and the down-to-earth and hard-working second young master became the master of the Li Mansion. Of course, compared to his brother, Zhong Guan'er will definitely be able to carry forward the Li family, but is he really the master who is suitable for Li Sanzhong? The chief steward was a little hesitant, compared to him, Zhong Guan'er was obviously closer to Master Salt Wang Huanzhi. Li Sanzhong said to himself that this was not jealousy, of course he knew that Wang Huanzhi had brought up Zhongguan'er single-handedly, but he still couldn't help but think that if he had taken good care of this poor child in the early years......

Now, the young head of the family asked him, compared to the eldest young master Li Yongzhong, who is the eldest young master, the Li family's hundreds of mouths, which one is more important in the heart of the Li family's chief steward?

Li Sanzhong swallowed. Sweat snaked down the sideburns. Flow, in this cold winter season, his face was covered with oil and sweat. He said in a stiff voice, "Zhong Guan'er, that's your eldest brother-in-law." ”

"So I gave him half of the salt well." Li Yongzhong's face gradually turned cold, "Yanjing is the root of the Li family, I shake the foundation of the family business for my eldest brother, what else do you want me to do?" ”

"Zhong Guan'er! If you give Boguan'er a salt well, it will cut off his way of life! The chief steward's voice was low and hoarse, and he looked at the head of the family hidden in the shadows with blazing eyes, "What's so difficult for you to raise his family?" But to give him an inheritance, this is to raise his heart - let the villain say a word of arrogance, even if the uncle is not good, but your hand is not good. ”

"Good or not...... It doesn't matter if you say it, it doesn't count if you say it. After being silent for a long time, Li Yongzhong said lightly: "He is my eldest brother, the grandson of the Li family, even though his father's last words, but in the eyes of the world, I am afraid that I am already a scheming person who occupies the family business." ”

"I want to open the Li family's century-old foundation, and I can't do it with the dozen or so salt wells that mix the old and the new. The world is in chaos," Li Yongzhong subconsciously stopped talking at this point, and started a new one, "But it is also a great opportunity, what I want to do now is more important than fighting for the family and business, I can accommodate the eldest brother, but the eldest brother may not tolerate me, it is better to be separated from each other, and everyone will be happy." ”

Li Sanzhong trembled, and he lost his voice and said: "This, this is to split up!?" ”

Li Yongzhong glanced at him, shook his head slightly, and said, "The Li family has never had a split in more than a hundred years, and although I am young, I don't plan to start by myself." My eldest brother and I are still in the same room, and in the future, in addition to the public middle school, we will still take care of each other. ”

The young man's cold voice seemed to be mixed with something else, but when he looked closely, he found nothing.

Looking at the back of Li Sanzhong leaving the study in despair, even Wang Huanzhi also had a trace of unbearability. After all, he has been friends for more than ten years, and he has always known the loyalty of the chief steward to the Li family.

Unable to bear it, he couldn't help but say to Li Yongzhong: "Dongjia, you are also in a hurry for all your actions today. ”

"How anxious?" Li Yongzhong lifted his eyelids, and the young man rubbed the smooth porcelain surface of the tea bowl boringly, and said coldly: "If I don't give in first, the eldest brother can set off a hundred waves." He's an idler, but I don't have that much time to spend with him. ”

Wang Huan was stunned, and some words were not easy to say.

But Li Yongzhong gushed endlessly as if he had finally opened the conversation: "Li Sanzhong's words today, why don't you say it to the eldest brother?" What is he saying that I don't know? What kind of thing did I Li Yongzhong do? It's all Li Yongbo's hand tail! But now they are all trying to persuade me! ”

The young man sneered: "It's just that one is reasonable, and the other is unreasonable!" In this world, the truth is always crooked! ”

Wang Huanzhi sighed and said, "Now, it's really going to be ......."

"I really want to." Li Yongzhong said categorically: "When Li Sanzhong agrees with the eldest brother, I will find the old man to open an ancestral hall and set a charter for this matter!" As soon as this matter is over, the matter of Arai has to be put on the agenda! I'm planning to open at least three wells by March next year! ”

The master was taken aback, obviously Li Yongzhong's plan surprised him a lot. "The owner," in order to be cautious, Wang Huanzhi had to speak again: "This amount is not a trivial matter. ”

"It doesn't matter." Li Yongzhong took a sip of tea, waved his hand and said: "It's still far from the New Year's Festival, and I don't say that I will open a well in winter, but the recruitment of workers can be done." A smile suddenly crossed his face, "My good brother, his former reputation is still there, and the water porters in those wells will not do anything for him." ”

"But I'm afraid that the stewards below ......" Wang Huanzhi has another layer of concerns.

"What's that fear? Who doesn't learn to do it? It just so happened that the new well was first established, and the original veteran was transferred to the new well, leaving half of the people on the old well, and the master took the apprentice, but how many could he take out? Li Yongzhong's plan for this matter is obviously not a day and a half, and he has been thinking deeply about it: "I don't want him to be proficient in all things, as long as he is proficient in everything here and there, everyone is proficient in one place, and I am not afraid of many people, but I am only worried about messing up the constitution." ”

Speaking of this, Wang Huanzhi also smiled a little, showing some relaxation: "The rules of Inoue are extremely strict, but the owners are better, a few years ago, I said that the owners are born businessmen, born shrewd," his face suddenly darkened a little, and said: "The owner has such qualifications, if the student is in the scholar's house, above the court on a different day, there is no place for the owner." ”

Li Yongzhong laughed and said, "Master is still the heart of a scholar!" But I'm impatient with that. He got up from the stool, relieved his muscles, walked around the ground twice, and said, "What about the way of the world now, that is, the seed of reading that I was born now?" ”

"Let's not say that the affairs of Liaodong have been eroded, just say that in the southwest, the rebellion of luxury in the second year of the Apocalypse has lasted for several years, and until today I have heard that the Tusi in the vicinity is in chaos again, when will the officials and troops be able to quell the chaos again? During the Rebellion of Luxury, the army was too Fushun - at that time, I was already the age of memory, and I still remember that my father sent Li Sanzhong and the master two early, and took me and my eldest brother to avoid Chengdu. ”

Wang Huanzhi's face changed, he hurriedly stood up, grabbed Li Yongzhong's hand, and almost pulled him to stumble, his voice was full of nervousness: "Silence!" Zhong Guan'er, you are too bold! ”

Li Yongzhong shook off his master's hand, walked back to his place and sat down, and poured a large sip of tea before he eased up, he looked at Wang Huanzhi's still nervous face, smiled helplessly, and said, "I'm not a child, where don't I know the severity?" Now in this situation, what if you take the top prize? The hand cannot be lifted and the shoulder cannot be resisted. The officials and people of the dynasty treated the soldiers coldly, but in my opinion, in this world, without a goose sword, they can't walk around. ”

Wang Huanzhi was silent when he said this. The two of them sat silently, and the master reluctantly said for a long time: "These have their own big masters in the court. Heart, I'll wait for Xiaomin to think about his own livelihood. ”

"The skin will not exist, but the hair will be attached." Li Yongzhong sighed and shook his head to say that he didn't want to talk about this topic anymore.

Wang Huanzhi hesitated for a while and said, "Dongjia, actually, I think there is nothing wrong with the big steward's concerns. ”

Li Yongzhong raised his hand and poured a cup of tea for his master, and said slowly: "After all, he is an old man who has been used by my father, and he must be extremely thoughtful." ”

Extremely thorough? The master chewed these words, but he didn't dare to speak.

But Li Yongzhong didn't care about him, and still said to himself: "It's a pity that people's hearts are really biased. What Li Sanzhong said is true, but I have countless things to do now, and I don't have time to entangle with my good big brother. His gaze seemed to be extremely close and far away, and his tone was quiet: "It's just that now, I can't help but think of Uncle Duan." ”

The master was silent for a moment before persuading: "Those who do great things do not hesitate to die." Since the owner has a heart, a few rumors will ...... Let it go. ”

"Well, that's all there is to it."

Li Sanzhong wandered around Li Yongbo's courtyard for an afternoon, thinking about it, and wanted to pull his legs and leave countless times, but he always softened his heart at the last moment. In the end, he stomped his foot: "Come on, he's a serious master of the big house!" So he looked for Li Yongbo to speak.

Li Yongbo looked him up and down suspiciously. When Li Qi was alive, Li Sanzhong treated him with respect, who knew that the old man's bones were not cold, so he ran to lick the second child's fart! A shameless villain, Li Yongbo doesn't like him very much now, but after all, he is not stupid, he still knows how much the big steward cares about the past feelings, and everything is towards him.

Now looking at his embarrassed look, Li Yongbo actually felt a little happy in his heart, laughed, and said slowly in a long tone: "Ah, what a rare guest!" ”

The chief steward smiled bitterly: "The eldest young master should not be happy with the villain." He coughed and spoke cautiously: "This, Zhongguan'er asked me to discuss something with the eldest young master." ”

Hearing Li Yongzhong's name, a dark cloud quickly drifted across the face of Li Yongbo, the eldest young master of the Li family. But after Li Qi's death, the treatment at home was not as good as before, which still made Li Yongbo a little jealous of his young brother. He pretended not to care, picked up the hem of his clothes and sat down in the circle chair, squinted his eyes at Li Sanzhong's face, and sneered: "My good brother can still discuss things with me?" Interesting and interesting, now that he is the head of a serious family, what does he have to say to me, a big brother who has broken down his family? ”

Li Sanzhong only felt bitterness in his mouth. This is the eldest son and grandson that the protagonist has been looking forward to for most of his life! He pleaded earnestly, and even showed a face, hoping that Zhong Guan'er would put the Li family's foundation first and not be angry, but now looking at Li Yongbo's appearance, Li Sanzhong couldn't help but wonder if he had done something wrong - perhaps, it would be best for the Li family to let Li Yongzhong throw away the burden.

Such thoughts only flashed in the heart of the chief steward, and his face was still respectful, and he even buried his head deeply in his speech: "Zhong Guan'er instructed the villain, only saying that Boguan'er is a serious concubine of the long house after all, even if it is for the word filial piety, he must look good on his face." ”

He took a deep breath and said word by word in a deep voice: "Zhong Guan'er has the intention to divide the salt well equally!" ”
